Belagavi: Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said a film on the life, ideology and principle of the Hangal Sri Kumara Shivayogi Swamiji must inspire the present society and the generation.
Speaking after releasing an audio CD and trailer of “Viratapura Viragi’ based on the life of Hangal Sri Kumara Shivayogi Swamiji here on Tuesday, he said Sri Kumara Shivayogi was a great achiever and he gave a new look to the 12th century old social revolution at a time when it was slowly shading away. The seer had upheld the Veerashaiva/Lingayat community. The Shivayogi Mandir established by him has been a centre of spirituality and such a center cannot be seen elsewhere. The Mandira has preserved the culture, heritage and samskara and the kudos to the seer for building such a centre, he said.
“A movie on the life of noted industrialist, Vijay Sankeshwar has been released. Sankeshwar has rightly said the success is not for himself but it must inspire the society,” he added.
